From DU...
I may offend some with this. If so, I'm sorry. But the more I see of this Rove thing, the more I think he's once again throwing his rubbing his hands together, throwing his head back, and laughing like a maniac.
Let's think about this for a minute.... If he had this innocence that they are now saying is slowly coming out, why wasn't this all taken care of months ago? My theory is that Rove knew he could get the dems whipped up in a frenzy, and it worked. As much as I'd like to see him go, I think the Dems up there calling for revocation of security clearance are eventually going to look foolish.
So Rove wins this game again. Let's face it, he's damn good at it. I feel pretty certain he was behind the national guard story. You have to admit it worked. Not only did it hurt Kerry, it completely destroyed Dan Rather and made even more people believe the myth of the "liberal media." Not a bad move.
Now, why would Rove do all this now? I know, the prosecutor has a lot of control on the timeline, but doesn't it seem odd that the whole firestorm erupts just as the DSM story was getting legs?
Does anybody agree with me on this?
